Early Advanced LIGO binary neutron-star sky localization and parameter estimation
2015 will see the first observations of Advanced LIGO and the start of the gravitational-wave (GW) advanced-detector era. One of the most promising sources for groundbased GW detectors are binary neutron-star (BNS) coalescences. In order to use any detections for astrophysics, we must understand the capabilities of our parameter-estimation analysis. By simulating the GWs from an astrophysically...
متن کاملParameter Estimation for Binary Neutron-star Coalescences with Realistic Noise during the Advanced Ligo Era
Advanced ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors begin operation imminently. Their intended goal is not only to make the first direct detection of GWs, but also to make inferences about the source systems. Binary neutron-star mergers are among the most promising sources. We investigate the performance of the parameter-estimation (PE) pipeline that will be used during the first observing ...
متن کاملBasic Parameter Estimation of Binary Neutron Star Systems by the Advanced Ligo/virgo Network
Within the next five years, it is expected that the Advanced LIGO/Virgo network will have reached a sensitivity sufficient to enable the routine detection of gravitational waves. Beyond the initial detection, the scientific promise of these instruments relies on the effectiveness of our physical parameter estimation capabilities. A major part of this effort has been towards the detection and ch...
متن کاملBinary neutron star inspiral, LIGO, and cosmology
The most promising anticipated source for the United States Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) or its French/Italian counterpart VIRGO is the radiation emitted during the final moments of inspiral before the coalescence of a neutron star neutron star (ns-ns) binary system. The instruments that will operate in the LIGO facility will evolve over time, and the often-discuss...
